Rob Lowe penning new book

Actor Rob Lowe is to expand upon his writing skills by penning a new tome about love, sex and marriage.

Earlier this year, “The West Wing” star published his memoir, “Stories I Only Tell My Friends,” and the book went on to win critical acclaim on the New York Times bestseller list.

And now Lowe is looking to capitalize on his new-found success as an author by signing a deal with publisher Simon & Schuster for “Love Life,” a book which will focus on his own experiences and observations.

Jonathan Karp, a rep for the company, released a statement, which reads, “The first book proved that Rob Lowe is a great storyteller. The second book will prove that he can write about anything and continue to captivate readers.”
